FYI:
It takes 50feet Of header wrap to properly cover the ZZP Lontube Header.
About another 10 or so feet for the Down pipe.
Amazon also it on sell for the low low.

I have amazon prime, so it may be more, but I'm showing $35 & free ship.
For the shortie I would guess 50feet would do just about all of it.

v8 may have been an exaggeration, but lots of low end grunt, Enough to not need the gas to get car rolling from a dead start and impossible to stall.
Realistically though it probably makes as much or more Tq than a 4.6 and the car weighs what 5-600lbs lighter than the mustang? sooo
